[flexcoders] How to handle itemClick and itemDoubleClick events on charts - need both

[j_lentzz]

Hi,

I have a chart that I'd like to use both itemClick and itemDoubleClick
on.  However, when a user double clicks, I don't want the itemClick
event functionality to also occur.  Right now, when I double click,
the itemClick event fires, then the itemDoubleClick event.  Is there a
good way to recognize that it is a doubleClick event and not let the
single click event take place?  The only way I can think of is to use
a timer routine to provide a 'cool down' period on the single click,
to allow me to see if a double click event follows.  For example, a
single click starts a 1/2 sec delay and if at the end of that delay, I
haven't received a double click event, then execute the single click
event code.  Does anybody have a better way to handle this?  I don't
like using a timing loop.

Thanks,

John
